Invitation to the Dance

Perspiring in Washington day & night last week was the U. S. Bureau of Printing & Engraving over the 37,000,000 $50 bonds which on June 15 will gladden the hearts of some 3,500,000 U. S. Veterans. In somnolent and leafy Princeton, N. J. 200 miles away, another printer had just rolled off his presses the last of 250 smartly inscribed invitations which, to him and his customers, were quite as significant as the Bonus bonds.

Reading over these invitations in his tiny Nassau Street offices, soft-spoken National Commander Lewis Jefferson Gorin of the Veterans of Future Wars grinned with approval. To an impressive list of U. S. dignitaries including President & Mrs. Roosevelt, the Cabinet, National Commander Ray Murphy of the American Legion and National Commander James E. Van Zandt of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, he and fellow-Princetonians mailed the following:
